New Year and Goals


Happy New Year!!!

I hope everyone  had a great New Year and partied like there was no tomorrow : )

As the new year dawns, I look back on the previous year and look at was accomplished on my goal list.

Every year I write goals for the year, as they are related to my writing business, then put them away only to pull them out at the end of that year.

For 2013 out of 27 goals, I accomplished 17 of them so that wasn't bad.  Then I realized there were 8 more goals I had completed that were not on the list.

I feel really good about what I accomplished in 2013.  It was a transition year for me, with moving to Washington State, getting settled in a brand new home, dealing with family and just the ups and downs of life.

I've already written my goals for 2014 and there are a lot of them, but I'm determined to make this my best year yet.

Have a great week.

Goals

Happy New Year, everyone.

It’s time for me to set my 2011 Goals. When I look back at my 2010 goals, I made 15 out of 22. Not bad considering some of them were stretch goals for me.

My 2011 goals I tried to keep more managable and achievable.

There’s 20 of them, all related to writing. That’s only 2 less than 2010, but this time I really looked at what I can accomplish based on my 2010 success.

Goals are good to have, but they must be measurable which I make sure mine are, I can either track hours, pages or words.

Some of my goals for 2011:

Promotion of Quick Silver Ranch: Roped & Ready

Write 3 new stories that are connected

Promotion of Quick Silver Ranch: Saddle Up

Submit current WIP

Keep my website up-to-day

Blogging – my blog and the Wild and Wicked Cowboys blog

Attend the Emerald City Conference

Critique group

So tell me what are you’re goals for the year?
